Phlur Somebody Wood Review

Phlur Somebody Wood. Warm woods and leather. Like a hug from your lumberjack friend who just got off a motorcycle – hypothetically, I have no such friend. Maybe it’s more like the lumberjack wore a leather jacket and was out … Continue reading

Kayali Invite Only Amber 23

Kayali Invite Only Amber 23. The only Kayali and the only tobacco in my collection. Tbh, it’s like they took Serge Lutens Chergui and made it more mass-appealing for the Sephora shopper. There’s a mellow coconut and a lot of musk … Continue reading
